- I have found the downswing drill that works!! I use this simple downswing drill all the time and it actually works. PGA Professional Alex Elliott Golf talks through the only golf drill you will need to improve your Downswing, and make the perfect golf swing Downswing drill. This drill is broken down, and shows you the correct golf downswing and how this helps you to achieve a controlled club face and downswing to make sure you square the club face at impact, and hit that pure strike! STOP THAT SLICE FIX TOO!
know that this drill is so good, that 99% of golfers will understand this drill and be able to implement it into their own golf swing with these simple steps.
Alex shows you today how to get more side bend over the golf ball in the downswing and stop standing up into impact! Standing up into the golf ball is one of the biggest power leaks for amateur golfers! stop leaking power and learn how to move in the downswing and more importantly make it feel like less effort for me speed. easier swing for more power in the downswing is all to do with how the body moves to start the downswing.

This cropped up in today’s coaching and I had share how to get into impact correctly 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks Alex. Great video. Makes getting into side bend much more sense!
Excellent video. For years, (I'm in my late 50's) I've been standing up at impact, thinking that I was tilted, and therefore consistently hooking the ball. Keeping my tilt and incorporating the right shoulder to right hip tilt has dropped 15 strokes off my game. No lie. Thanks for the valuable insight.
Alex... being a senior golfer...this move will have us in physical therapy the entire season. I remember the days this would have been a piece of cake.... that ship has sailed.
Senior golfers would do better watching instructional videos on how to effectively swing an axe then maybe🪓🪓🪓
I'm 63 with degenerated discs, bone spurs of the facet joints, etc, etc. But there are things I've learned to do that have helped me make swings which are healthier and put less stress on my spine. These mechanics allow me to make this right shoulder move Alex is proposing. His tip here is crucial for making contact on the correct section of the ball and club face and is not highly stressful on the spine if using the feet, legs and hips properly. I say not "highly" because there's no way around it, golf is stressful on the back to some degree no matter what you do.
wow, I took this tip on the course today ( your video gave me the urge to play a quick 9 instead of a lunch break) and I hit like never before ! 😯 I will tape the screenshot on my bag, thank you AE !
Outstanding! I am 80yrs old. Played 6 practice holes today after viewing your video for the first time last night. Very well explained and successfully accomplished your lesson. Can’t wait to apply it again tomorrow in a match.
brill! good on you… let me know how you get on
Hope I have your attitude to learning when I’m 80
I worked with an instructor that had same theory to improve ball impact. Got me to a 5 handicap. Very simple process. For right handed players. Set up over all. Drop right hand and lean sideways until hand reaches right knee. That is your lean. Swing club. Simple.... It allows you to keep your right elbow tucked in close the the body creating a very powerful swing. I don't know why it works so well. But it does. And when i stray away from it, it starts to show on my ball impact.
Hi! How’s it going ?
I find creating a flatter swing on backswing and maintaining it on downswing or shallowing on downswing has the same effect and automatically creates the sidebend and forward shaft lean.
Alex, great video. I suffer from early extension and this is exactly the drill I need. You have clarified a practice pathway that I will definitely apply, thanks for your guidance.
Alex, the best part of these videos is how positive you are in your thought process. You maintain that EVERYONE can get closer to playing like a professional. Not equal to. Closer to. Anything that is substantially better than what we are doing is a beautiful thing!!! As a top 50 World Teacher, that is your secret sauce in the pasta. BELIEF. Without that, you will always place limitations on the level you can reach. I believe 100 percent in what you are teaching. It starts and ends there. Watch a professional player and you will see a tremendous amount of side bend in their swing. Rather than thinking about the entire structure staying down. Keep the bend. Then everything stays down automatically!!There are a few simple things the pros do that pre ordain good shots. This may be the greatest single swing thought in the game. Because it is probably the greatest flaw. Eliminate the biggest flaw and you will see the biggest improvement. Rather than thinking about everything in the swing, concentrate on the one aspect that makes the biggest difference. Stop chasing down blind alleys. THEN ANYONE CAN IMPROVE.
That was not rushed at all 😊 I absolutely love your videos. I play off 7 but learnt my golf many years ago - your videos like this keep me current without confusing me - I also look forward to them so thanks 🙏
thank you!
This is a move I've been trying to achieve for months but couldn't mentally visualise or create. This video really helped actually doing it!! Will be watching more of your content now. Thank you.
Properly rotating the shoulders automatically creates right side bend at impact. The upper body when functioning correctly is very much like a tilit-a-whirl action. Rotating and tilting simultaneously. Great video Alex,thank you!
Alex Thank You I was halfway there you completed the move shoulder to the hip,I am 80 years play off 12 and now understand what I should do,my first round with side bend I was 4 shots better 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I wish I saw your video years ago. It really works. Extremely effective eliminating so many swing thoughts that just simply happen automatically. Unbelievably solid consistent contact. Thank you
This is a really brilliant tutorial as far as far as I am concerned. I've watched bags of videos to help me with this challenge and this has hit in the nail. Thanks Alex.
Nice tip Alex- much appreciated getting to the thought process with good demonstration of practice pre-swing
Alex took this to the course today only for a practice and struck the ball so sweetly with the right elbow move video, never hit the ball this far , with my 8 iron , I hope it stays with me from a 50 year old golfer , thanks for the great videos
Very nice video! This is defiantly the key to great ball compression! Over the top and standing tall is a normal golf swing that ends up making millions quit the game. You have to learn the side bend and hips clearing move if your ever going to have fun at this game! Again, thanks for sharing!
this might be the best explanation i've seen to date, in the tee box, both static and dynamic. Cheers
Gold standard instruction just keeps on coming. Please keep it up. It’s amazing.
Hi Steve!! Great to hear you enjoyed the video 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💥
Wonderful concepts and video Alex! Thank you!
Excellent effective short and sweet video. It truly works.
Ive said it before, when im focused on a specific movement your videos somehow turn up and your pondering the exact same movement. Thanks again Alex and success always!
Dr D
thanks!!
Great drill Alex! Great image and concept. Much thanks.
Hi! How’s it going?
Thank you Alex, I feel like you made this video because you saw me hitting a golf ball. You’re awesome!!
Thanks for this video it’s really transformed my swing 🤙🏻
Amazing! I finally understand the right side tilt by bringing right hip and right shoulder close. Until hearing your explanation this morning I thought it was a very complex movement and one my body was having difficulties with. Concentrating on this simple thought and movement made an incredible difference to my game today. Thank you. 9:07
Alex I think with this tip you solved my problem,I'll be trying this on the range tomorrow.Thanks
Good stuff! I'll give it a try.. Keep the vids coming.
Superb video Alex, many thanks 👏👏
This also helps to bring the grip before the ball , Great ALEX !
Great explanation Alex, Thank you !
Good tip Alex. I have been achieving the same thing by dropping my right shoulder after I take my stance as I sometimes forget to do it on my down swing. I have also tried the opposite thought with my irons ie slightly dropping the left shoulder on the down swing to ensure I am hitting down on the ball
Hi! How’s it going?
Great video, an really simple thought to take to the range this weekend. Thanks Alex
Love that Paul!! Let me know how you get on!!
Hey Alex you really hit the spot with your videos. I live in the U.S.. and I watch your utube Chanel everyday. They have really helped me with my game, thanks for your help
.
yes yes yes i love this thank you
Excellent way of explaining this as most of us medium to high handicappers do struggle with early body extension and getting out of that power slot. Thanks for the help
Hi! How’s it going ?
Good tip; will practice the move. Thanks.
This guy is so practical. Great instruction!
Very well explained and showed for us.!
another well explained lesson Alex, really enjoy your content. 👍
Hi! How’s it going?
Hi Alex, i would just like to say how much I enjoy your channel. Your enthusiasm to help other golfers is infectious, you always have a smile on your face , and you are such a pleasant guy, You we’re definitely made for the role you play, and your teaching is fantastic.
Keep up the great work.
Regards Jeff
thank you so much ! realy appreciate this
Hi! How’s it going?
Just tried this at the driving range for the last two days and I noticed several things, but one thing really stood out. This one move made me realize how many other bad movements I had in my swing. In particular, how I would start the downswing by swinging too hard from the top with my hands. I actually had to slow my hands down to give my shoulder time to drop toward my hip. it’s going to take several sessions to work this into my swing but the shots I did hit solid felt like butter. Minimal effort and I’m getting the same or greater distance as well as accuracy. This is definitely a key piece to my swing. Appreciate this video. Thank you 🙏🏻
Brill! so glad this has helped you and you have made improvements
I think this is the hardest (and most rewarding) piece of the swing. It’s where the battle of the hit instinct is won or lost imho.
This is excellent advice. Thanks Alex
Great drill! You have help my game for years with the simplicity of the game.
Hi! How’s it going?
Had to lol when you said screenshot this position because I had already screenshotted and reound to screenshot again about 20 times, great feel and tip as always Alex💯
Thoroughly enjoyed the video! Thanks for posting. Right shoulder closer to right hip. We've seen Justin Rose do it...good stuff.
Thank you! Just want I needed.
Truly excellent helpful lesson....Staying with the shot is paramount in playing consistently...Right shoulder to right hip a is a great swing thought, especially on the range. Thanks..BTW, I subbed...
Very very helpful for Driver Downswing. Thank you so much Alex. Could you please kindly also make Downswing video For Irons where we are supposed to shift weight on lead foot.
Great video clearly explained cheers
Brilliant Alex, thank you
Alex, another great vid and an easy to follow drill. Thank you.
Thank you Chris!! Great to hear you liked the video
Brilliant instruction!
Great video Alex.
Thank U so much for this excellent video on how to reach the important impact area.
you’re welcome thank you for tuning in
Well done, thank you.
Alex. Approximately 3 weeks ago, i found your videos online. I tried other online teaching. Kirk Junge single plane, Me and my Golf and Rotary Swing. Some good results but none worked long term.
You are changing my golf game. I'm 72 years old, knee replacement and went from a 5 hcp to a 12.
Today i shot a 38. Only had time for 9 holes. 1 birdie, 3 bogeys. My practice sessions are getting so much better and consistent. Especially in ball turf contact.
I have implemented teachings. For me, the takeaway drill and this video have been the most beneficial. For anyone reading this, I would suggest the takeaway drill first and foremost. I couldn't get your instruction to work without a proper takeaway. After that, i put this in place. Great results. Consistent results.
Perhaps, one day you'll organize your videos as a lesson plan.
I love my progress and its repeatability. Thank you so much.
I now understand why you are a top 50 instructor.
Please come to Arizona and spend a couple of days with me. Haha. Great weather and great Mexican food.
Thanks again
Absolutely love this! Thank you so much for letting me know all about it and your progress. Haha i would absolutely love that! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
My club has 2 Fazio courses, and I know all the great Mexican restaurants.
Plus, my winter weather may be a bit better than yours. No need for puffy vests and wool hats. Haha
Thanks for the tips again
🙏 thank you, perfect drill for me!
Thanks Alex! 🙌
brilliant help thanks, keep them coming
Lovely great to hear!!
It works for me all the way. Thanks.
This is an excellent bit of content. I am currently playing off 7 and these mental visuals do help you. I love this drill and I have to feel my left side stays still even though is probably doesn´t. Thanks
Hi! How’s it going?
Thanks great lesson
Thank you very much for your lesson ! It helped me a lot.
you’re very welcome! Merry christmas to you from manchester 🎄
Love this! Most coaches don't talk about the downswing. This really helps me with a single downswing thought instead of the 5 I had before. Heading up to the range shortly to work on it. Really like the style of this video too - simple clear and passionate!
Hi! How’s it going?
@@user-nc4cx4gw2z I've been to the range twice now, thanks Aleisha, and this is really helping me - keeping my right shoulder closer to my rt hip keeps my downswing shallow and allows me to rotate properly thru impact. Lots to work on but definitely feeling much better contact and direction :-)
That good! I always like visiting the driving range, but tbh I am pretty bad in golfing. But I love to watch from outside. I practiced the 9iron that’s I could play a little but it’s not easy still lol.
@@alanjohnston3090 where are you from friend?
thanks there, it helps a lot.
Excellent thank you 🙂👍
Perfect lesson !
This video is excellent.
I've early extended for years....I'll give it a try. Thanks
Fantástic drill. Thanks a lot
This is a great video. Thank you. on the range I was killing it. Took it on the Course today and kept getting my weight and my head going forward and was hitting most everything left, that did not go left was blocked right!
😢
what an amazing video, now you are my favorite on the internet. congratulations.
Wow, thank you!
I feel like this is absolutely key to the golf swing. Everyone needs to really exaggerate it to really feel it. I feel like people don’t do enough of it. Even though it feels like your doing it
Awesome drill brother!
Brilliant. Thank you.
Look forward to trying it tomorrow in cold upstate New York!! As always good content Alex
Hi! How’s it going ? It’s really a nice one to try… If only I knew how to play, I would love to get on!
Straight forward and not hard to follow. I like it.
Most informative video, thank you!
Hi! How’s it going ?
A lot of amateurs afraid of shoulder tilt because we are afraid of hitting ground first. Which is very important to shallow the club first. Let the gravity drop the club first before u fire open your knee, hip, and shoulders.
Love that analogy thank you for sharing with the team!!!
I’m enjoying watching your videos. I tend to extend to soon and I slice the ball.
Hi! How’s it going ?
GREAT TIP BRO THANKS!💪🏾✊🏾💪🏾👍🏾
you’re welcome!
Alex, I've read how people say this tip or that tip has changed their game, and thought, yeah right, whatever!....and now here I am!
The slack on string swing-thought was just a moment when the penny dropped, I instantly had a great mental image to prompt me before a shot. Ball striking improvement immediately, like a serious WTF moment, the added distance (with a much higher ball flight, softer landing ball) has meant I've added 40+ yards to my driving, 20+ yards to a 7 iron, with stopping ability...absolutely ridiculous improvement from a level which I've stagnated at for 3 years since I returned to golf.
Yesterday, after 3 range sessions to hone it, I, an aged 50+ 18 handicapper , hit 12 greens in regulation & despite 38 putts (yikes!) shot an 84 on a 136 slope course. Goodbye to the days of the flat shoulder turn, hello slack string, dynamic impact position and smiling after I put one into a ditch crossing a fairway at 270 yards because even with a driver, I won't reach that!
Just a massive thank you!
I just tried this at the driving range. I hit it solid every time. I left a few out to the right, but mostly his straight shots. thanks
Great drill and feel Alex...first class as it makes so much sense
Thank you David!! Great to hear it makes sense to you 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hi! How’s it going ?
Hi Alex, I’ll be spending a bit more time at the range practicing this before my comp round tomorrow morning. Keen to see what the over exaggeration does. Thank you. 👍😎🇦🇺
Good morning Marcus! Where are you playing today
Thanks for a good video
Yes I came to the same realisation and have been incorporating it in my downswing. My feeling is more of my forearm V working down and around.
Hi! How’s it going?
Excellent!
well done, very fluid ...
Great video
Great video Alex!!
Thank you Harry
Great advice
Nice video alex.
Love that idea Alex.
Hi! How’s it going ?
Thanks! Great Lesson
Thank you so much!!
well explained Alex. I have been doing this drill for a while now. I don't spin out or stand up too early at impact. Great drill to practice and it will improve your game! Looking forward to the next golf tip!
Hello
Rob!! Thank you I real let hope this helps you improve your golf this winter ❄️
@@AlexElliottGolf I am in sunny Australia and we are in our summer season, although we still had our Jetmaster heater on last week. Melbournions complain about our winter here but it is the best time to play golf here as our winters are mild compaired to yours. I lived in Holland for 30 years. Hope you cricket team improves their game!
Thank you for a great tip. I suffer from early extension...I hit a few grounders off the tee every round. Funny thing is I don't do it on the range!!!
Thanks!
Thanks Alex. I tried that over the weekend at my club and i started hitting them straight off the tee, and some longer too.
Glad to hear this !
